Daily Success Motivation and The Purpose Driven Life

In Part 1 of this series of articles on Finding Your Sweet Spot I end with Starting with Discovery as a first step in getting moving towards purpose. Let's expand some more on the discovery process.

Ways to discover your purpose:

1. Talents (natural and learned)
Your talents are good lifemarks to what your purpose may be. Lifemarks are landmarks in your life that can point or orient you to the direction you should take in finding what fulfills you the most.

2. Service to others.
Your service to others can be a good discovery ground for find your purpose. People find their life purpose by exploring ways to serve others as well. In what capacity to you currently serve others and what types of service are you willing to explore as a part of your discovery process? Service to others is a great enabler to unlocking passion and helping us realize what we value most. For example, missions, hospice or teaching are great service oriented roles that lend themselves to discovery of purpose.

3. Learning Styles.
Your learning styles are great ways to explore discovery of purpose through learning. Learning opens to the door to greater success and possibilities and is fundamental to creating life changes. When you learn how you learn and when you learn how to learn...you create unlimited possibility. You are infinitely upgradeable through learning. Unlocking powerful learning unlocks powerful living.

4. Life Challenges and Failures.
The things that challenge us the most can become our calling. Breakdowns and setbacks in life become build ups and set ups for comebacks! Turn your lemons into lemonade as the famous saying goes. Temporary defeat becomes your victory. Failure is not a dirty word if you understand that it is only feedback. But failure teaches us something. When we miss the mark that is a great time for learning and getting stronger. What are your challenges and what have been your failures from which you can discover or recover direction for your life's purpose?

5. Passions and Interests.
Passions and interests are natural places to easily discover purpose and I touched on this in part 1 of this series. Explore your interest and look for your passion patterns. That is, look for the interest that frequently get your attention. Look at the activities you do that frequently unleash your natural brilliance and intuitive insight. Identify that the things that you do very well ask how they might be lifemarks to your purpose and destiny.
